The Best VR Games by Genre 2024 Edition

80% of these games look like a motion sickness simulator. I love VR but I can’t play so many games due to the motion sickness, and I wish more devs make games for people like me me

Did I blink when you mentioned "Ghosts of Tabor"? It's a game in a genre I want to get good at, but lack the willpower to push myself in to standing up and raising the heart rate. Maybe when I get a sweat proof face thing for the new Q3 I'll trust the process more, but until then there's loads of options listed almost mentioned too quickly for me to note down.

Edit to add a comment about "The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners" - I have it my Steam playtime is 20 minutes so I guess I don't do horror VR well at all. That was the Rift S days with the cable I could trip over or rip out when standing up. Now with the Q3, Virtual Desktop and a better router I can get wireless speeds between the headset and PC for PCVR wireless gaming at the same speed, which from my experience with Half Life: Alyx is bloody awesome. I just need to train myself to now remember I can turn on the spot when I need to instead of using the controller direction.

Also to note that there's a Steam VR Update in the works that will allow for hand tracking in games. I haven't yet tried it out and it's currently on Beta but it is coming and that will further the immersion of PCVR.

Garbage

Oh wow, you add a lot of crap like population one but not add IL 2 Shturmovik and No Man Sky? That means you are not a VR person you are just hyping on VR news.

So if you like VR, get a Quest and a PC. Steer very clear of PSVR2. Check.

Thanks for including Lone Echo series. For me, they're among the best in VR, maybe only topped by Half-Life Alyx. It's difficult to put in words how good they are.

DCS World best Flight Sim of all Tbh

Lone echo looks amazing, yet no PSVR2 release.

Blade and sorcery on nomad doesn't have the progression system yet

I guess racing games don't make the cut of VR titles. Not like it hasn't been one of the most admitted reason to get VR in the first place or a genre that has been supporting VR since the beginning. But whatever.

This is by far the best VR game recommendations video I've seen, seen a lot of them they put me off from VR

Half Life Alyx is incredible!

Can you do co-op non-adrenaline games? I really like games like walkabout minigolf and rooms of reality and am open to suggestions for this type of games.

Man I love my ghiosts of tabor

I just realized there are even some genres totally missing...

Experience & Travel: Brink Traveller, Google Earth VR

Sports Sim (if not in Workout genre): Eleven Table Tennis, Golf+, Walkabout Mini Golf, Racket Club, Thrill of Fight

Relaxing: Puzzling Places

Art: Vermillion - VR Painting

population one isn't free to play

PSVR2 Resident Evil 4Remake VR > Meta Quest RE4 VR and it's not even close.

rhythm action a good one is metal hellsinger vr

Does legendary tales have seated mode yet?

battle talent is a good roguelite

E

So many of these games look dated. Still waiting for the graphics to level up before buying into VR again.

Another great roguelike is Light Brigade

I just finished the (recently updated) Bulletstorm VR. Awesome VR conversion of a 2015 favorite.
Also add Star Wars: Squadrons to your list. It is X-Wing vs TIE Fighter 2020, with VR support. The multiplayer servers are dead but it's still a fun arcade-y space flight sim. (single player story and bot battles now)

Anyone looking for a kinda social and also satisfying game should try walkabout minigolf

Man. Meta Quest Stand-Alone headsets are really holding us back. All this stuff looks like it belongs back in 2010. Terrible.

Can't believe The Light Brigade was not part of the "Roguelikes" section

This guy sounds like the guy from NotAnotherCookingShow. lol

population one is super fun

Mh. I missed Skyrim. Yeah, its okd, but still THE VR-Game :p
And i was hoping for Deisim. Its a God-Sim and so cool.

All in all a top video of good VR-Titles. Thanks for the inspiration. I'll go to buy Demeon now. :)

I don't know why, but something inside me is deeply offended by these AI generated pictures. The thumbnail is definitely AI generated... I can tell because looking at it makes me sick

Monroe Island

Delbert Road

its a crime that Ragnarock is not in the Rhythm section

No Light Brigade? I got over 100 hours in that roguelike. My go-to shooter.

HELLA NICE VIDEO, THANK YOU <3

Rumble is a great workout game

Anais River

Lol u forgot the n1 VR tactical shooter, that actually has VRML support... ONWARD.

No mention of No Man's Sky? Not very honorable of you 😁

Lone Echo is my undisputed favourite also. I've never had a game shock me as much as this did, and I've gamed my entire life.

Its never on any lists but assetto corsa has a vr mode and its fantastic as the mod list huge

Great video! You should mention Freeland in the list, as it’s launching soon!

What's with your accent? It's all over the place and sounds really strange.

It's great how the Quest 3 can also just be used for pcvr.

bonelab is a tech demo imho
and boring
and vertigo 2 was very boring
not fun for me
did not like red matter 2, too much slow and backtracking
wasn't impressed with those 3
or hubris, blech.
glad I tried before not buying
I never liked beat saber
at all
too blocky and don't dig the songs
but I play Synth Riders with custom songs twice a week after 2 years still
pistol whip or superhot is always fun for a few minutes

I don’t understand why they only modeling hands ?
